Built on the underpinning technology of HYAS Insight threat intelligence, HYAS Protect is a protective DNS solution that combines authoritative knowledge of attacker infrastructure and unrivaled domain-based intelligence to proactively enforce security and block communication to threat actor infrastructure, such as command and control(C2) infrastructure, phishing sites and other communications to malicious destinations.

No security solution can stop all security breaches and keep all bad things out. Malware can still happen even with the best of EDR systems and other security measures in place. And once inside, they’re hard to detect. The majority of malware and threat actors have one thing in common. The need to communicate with threat actor infrastructure, like Command and Control (C2) servers. Whether it is for receiving instructions, downloading payloads, exfiltrating data or other malicious intent.

However, if this communication is detected and acted on quickly and proactively, it is possible to completely neutralize or minimize the damage that can be done. If malware cannot communicate to receive instructions, it will lay dormant and harmless. HYAS detects and blocks these communications to threat actor infrastructure before harm is caused, alerting administrators to the breaches.

• Easy and rapid deployment that requires no additional agents.
• All management functions controlled from Microsoft Security Center.
• Reduced security operations center (SOC) noise via a high-fidelity threat signal that minimizes false positive alerts.
